Look at Me

Do you see this face…this pit of darkness?

This well of sorrow?

Go on…take a look

Take a bite of this chocolate…

Oh is it bitter??

You’ll have to forgive me…I haven’t been feeling too sweet lately.

You see inadequacy…I see a painting of nature

I see resentment and years of wanting to be seen…

And yet they still don’t see me

Said I’m too dark

WELL EXCUSE ME FOR WEARING GOD’S FACE…Muthafucka!

You see a worthless piece…but I see the Master’s finest piece of work

Oh little child, don’t let them take your smile
